Technology imitates art, which imitates life, which sucks
Hey der
I am back to bring the noise and such.
What's that you say? You'd like me to post another poem?
Cheeky monkey. Nobody tells me what to do.
Alright, alright stop your blubbering.
How about I post an E-poem? What's an E-poem you ask?
What did I tell you about talking back?
Fine I'll tell you. (Bloody whiner)
An E-poem is a poem written in "real time" directly to the web.
That way the creative process is entirely electronic,
without all the pesky interference of "real life"
This ensure that the end result is as inorganic as possible,
while still being spontaneous. It's all the rage.
What's that you say? I just made this whole thing up?
Why you lousy such and such....
Fine doubter, I'll show you.
Here goes:
Kill the modern day view
You'll be burned alive by time
Burried neck deep in yesterdays
and caught in the currents of tomorrow
I raise a fist against conformity
Just like everyone else
I am the barcode
I am the ampersand
No one remebers why
We only remeber when
There was a question no one asked
to an answer no one found
don't go looking for solutions
when you're buried in the ground
I got a fist full of broken promises
and a pocketfull of lies
and I'm burning like the atoms
that are falling from the sky
See? That's an E-poem, a poem written entirely in cyberspace,
that nebulous pseudo-concept that transhumanists fantasize about
and failed Sci Fi writers use a stock backdrop for their "epics".
It's so very po-mo (that's for you CB) and ever so cyber punk.
Anyway, let me know what you think. (so i can make fun of you)

P.S. The verification word for validating this post as being human is "zzqebck". Man that could be the next Quebec long bearded super old time rock and/or roll band, ZZQebck!
